Okay, this is slightly off topic, but also slightly on. I've got a '90 Dodge Daytona ES with a 2.5 turbo. If I'm correct this motor is the Chrysler 420A (a 2.2 that they bored and stroked a bit and put balance shafts in to keep the idle smooth) I'm looking to do some tweaking to it, and the first major problem I see is the SOHC head with only 2 valves per cylinder... this obviously makes it difficult to flow a lot of A/F mix into the cylinders... I *HAVE* found a guide to put a 2.0/2.4 Neon or Stratus DOHC head on this block (http://home.comcast.net/~ozspeed/) but was wondering if anybody had tried putting a 4G63T head on this motor. Will it work? Would getting a neon head ported and use it be a better idea? Furthermore, does anybody know if the engine/trans mounts for the 420A and 4G63T are in the same locations (if I felt compelled to just build a nice g63 and toss the 420 completely) Any tips, suggestions, and useful feedback is greatly appreciated.

Okay, went ahead and moseyed over to the dodgeforums, however, I think that my question is still relevant to the general discussion forum I posted under, as chrysler IS dsm, and I'm asking about a DSM motor (the 4g63) in relation to mounting it in place of the motor in the car now... granted it's not an eclipse... it also only cost me $200, and if I can find an eclipse that isn't too far ####ed off for that price I would be all over it. Anyway, if anyone DOES know the answer to my questions I'd appreciate the help. Thanks.
